Michael Maguire

i thought the event your on about was in club metro its not been open long but it is a club .that night i think it was £25 to get in and all you could drink

if maguire has packed it in ,i feel its a shame he was a good prospect

 

he quit boxing after his last fight. he used to box on the england squads n that, but has smoked for years, it was obviously gona catch up wiv him 1 day

 

i stopped going to clubs about 3 years ago, 1, i felt i was getting to old and 2, i noticed a change in the atmosphere and i agree about the drink thing but there are quite a few that do seem look for agro whe they have had a few to many

as i said if he has packed it in i thinks its a pity

 

I agree.

Also there are plenty of non gypsy fighters who have problems/are ****s/throw their career away. Certainly not exclusive to traveller lads.

 

Spot on :deal

 

a shame really, knew him from school - he was always an idiot but seems dedicated and committed to boxing e.g. having a balanced and healthy lunch and not eating burger and chips like the rest of the kids.

wonder what went wrong?

 

He was smoking as a 15 year old, a talented lad who fought talent was all he needed. To many Gypsy lad's think it's just a tear up, it's part of many's mentality. I used to shake my head at the lads in gym they'd have so much skill but wanna ruck.

Thankfully i had it knocked out of me by my dad.
